This pizza is simple to create if you make the Turmeric Cashew Cheese first and use store-bought cauliflower crust (however, I do recommend making your own if you have the time!). The cheese recipe will make more than double the amount you need for the pizza, allowing you to make it on one day and use it throughout the week on wraps, in salads, and, of course, reserving some for the pizza. With the cauliflower crust and fresh vegetables, this is a light, refreshing, and nourishing dish for the spring and summer evenings!

This nutrient- and fiber-rich crust might take a little time, muscle, and patience but it’s well worth the wait! Cauliflower Pizza Crust is much lighter than its whole-grain counterpart, making it a nice summer evening meal with fresh tomatoes, basil, and roasted veggies.

Peanutty (subs available!) vegetables topped with cashew mozzarella? Yes, please! The sweet and tangy peanut sauce combined with the savory and creamy cashew cheese is sure to satisfy all your tastebuds. If you’re a spice fan, top it with jalapeno for an all-around flavorful and energizing pizza!

Turn your garden squash into a crispy, savory snack! For optimal crisp, enjoy them right away. If you eschew sweet when it comes to snacks then these squash bites will do the trick!

When it’s tomato season, hopefully, you’ll have plenty growing in your backyard, but if not then look for them through your local CSA. Bookmark this soup for the fall months or make extra to store in the freezer for up to three months until you’re ready to enjoy it. It’s great hot or cold!

This healthy and environmentally-friendly version of poke (traditionally a raw seafood dish) allows you to use any fresh local farmers market vegetables you have on hand. Enjoy on a sunny day topped on flaxseed crackers, inside lettuce wraps, or on top of watermelon radish slices.

All the flavors in this dish work wonderfully together, especially if you give the tofu skewers a little time to marinate before baking. The umami flavor of the mushrooms combined with the sweet pineapple and savory tofu will satisfy all of your tastebuds!

A little sweet, a bit savory, and a lot crunchy — these easy-to-make pecans are so so good, as well as versatile! Enjoy them on top of salads, in oatmeal, or by themselves. Pro-tip: double the batch so you can snack on them all week long!

Needing dinner fast one night, I reached for pasta and tomato sauce—but I wanted to make it heartier. With cooked sweet potato in the fridge, these SweetBalls soon took shape!
